“Freedom!” I yelled out as I opened my arms and took in the smell of the fresh air. I was officially free, which meant I was officially working with the DEA to take down the Hernandez and officially a certified

Panther let out an annoyed huff and wrapped his suit jacket around my shoulder.

“It’s cold. Please watch yourself.”

“I am watching myself, and I look good, right, Laine?” I asked my lawyer. He patted me on my back with a forced smile on his face. “Panther is right, it’s a change of environment, and we don’t want you getting sick.

I rolled my eyes at their boring behavior and focused my attention on Stanfield, who had followed me outside. “I’m surprised you didn’t offer me your jacket,” I told him. “I thought you might because you followed me all the way up here-”

“To keep an eye on you,” Stanfield spoke while he lowered his head. I chuckled and gave Laine and Panther a look, which they had immediately understood. “I’ll see you later,” Laine spoke and took his exit.

Panther looked from me to Stanfield before he shot him a dismayed look. “I’ll be in the car, Marvin.”

I waited until Panther was out of sight, and so did Stanfield.

“Don’t worry, I’ll deliver the message, just like you’ve asked me to, Stanfield told me. “It’s your last request, so I’ll do you a favor.”

“Thanks.”

I was dying to ask that question all along and felt grateful he started the subject himself. Although I was happy to get out of this place, I had to admit it pained me to know that I wouldn’t be able to talk to Elena

anymore.

I reached for the letter I had written just several hours ago and scanned through it one last time. I was surprised by my words, but they were sincere.
